Abstract Recent earthquakes in Chile, 2014, Mw 8.2 Iquique, 2015, Mw 8.3 Illapel and 2016,
Mw 7.6 Chiloé have put in evidence some problems with the straightforward application of …

The mechanisms leading to large earthquakes are poorly understood and documented.
Here we characterize the long‐term precursory phase of the 1 April 2014 Mw8. 1 North Chile …

Subduction zone megathrust faults host Earth's largest earthquakes, along with multitudes of
smaller events that contribute to plate convergence. An understanding of the faulting …

Abstract The M7. 8 Kaikoura Earthquake that struck the northeastern South Island, New
Zealand, on November 14, 2016 (local time), is one of the largest ever instrumentally …

In this review article, we compile seismological observations from the different constituent
parts of the Northern Chile forearc: the downgoing Nazca Plate, the plate interface, the …

In this study, we present high‐resolution seismicity images of the northern Chile subduction
zone forearc. We used 8 years of continuous seismic waveform data from the Integrated …

Centroid moment tensor (CMT) parameters can be estimated from seismic waveforms. Since
these data indirectly observe the deformation process, CMTs are inferred as solutions to …

The mechanical description of the seismic cycle has an energetic analogy in terms of
statistical physics and the second law of thermodynamics. In this context, an earthquake can …

The monitoring of induced seismicity is a common operation in many industrial activities,
such as conventional and non-conventional hydrocarbon production or mining and …

Clustering algorithms can be applied to seismic catalogs to automatically classify
earthquakes upon the similarity of their attributes, in order to extract information on seismicity …
